Traces, lengths, axes and commensurability

Alan W. Reid (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

The focus of this paper are questions related to how various geometric and analytical properties of hyperbolic 3-manifolds determine the commensurability class of such manifolds. The paper is for the large part a survey of recent work.

A short introduction to shadows of 4-manifolds

Francesco Costantino (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We give a self-contained introduction to the theory of shadows as a tool to study smooth 3-manifolds and 4-manifolds. The goal of the present paper is twofold: on the one hand, it is intended to be a shortcut to a basic use of the theory of shadows, on the other hand it gives a sketchy overview of some of the most recent results on shadows. No original result is proved here and most of the details of the proofs are left out.
